I know what you're going though, though. I have been through it. I know the feeling of wanting to be "empty." Its a temporary illusion because food (calories!) gets absorbed in the small intestine and anything that is undigestible moves to the colon. The colon is where the laxatives take effect and moves everything out like a freight train. You will never lose weight using laxatives, just "mass."
It sounds cheesy but the first step in healing is the smallest thing...even throwing around the possibility this could be a problem and causing dysfunction. Trust me when I say this will get you no where.  |
Thank you so much for your reply. I am taking more pills now to get the desired effect. I know it is not doing me any good and I kind of understand about the calories but I just cant stop. I think it has maybe become an addiction like someone else mentioned here I think. I am in pain now as well which is scary. I went for a health check (NHS) routine thing and the nurse commented that mine was the healthiest she had seen in years! It just doesn't show and I am in so much pain mentally with this. But there is no way I want this to appear on my records in my surgery. I have told my T but she doesn't seem bothered either (probably as I look completely "healthy"). Thank you so much for your reply. I am feeling very down. It means a lot that someone bothered to reply.
